Revision 9987fbb368038d41bfdcda2a3f7f4945d7daa9a5 authored by Harry Wentland on 16 August 2021, 19:57:12 UTC, committed by Alex Deucher on 16 September 2021, 13:56:23 UTC
On Carrizo/Stoney systems we set backlight through panel_cntl, i.e.
directly via the PWM registers, if DMCU is not initialized. We
always read it back through ABM registers which leads to a
mismatch and forces atomic_commit to program the backlight
each time.

Instead make sure we use the same logic for backlight readback,
i.e. read it from panel_cntl if DMCU is not initialized.

We also need to remove some extraneous and incorrect calculations
at the end of dce_get_16_bit_backlight_from_pwm.

README
Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
